  • Patient may not receive any other investigational agent (not approved by the FDA for any indication) concurrently for the duration of the protocol.
  • Patient has evidence of a pulmonary infiltrate or diffuse alveolar hemorrhage and must not be likely to require more than 2 liters of oxygen via face mask or an estimated fractional inspired oxygen concentration (FiO2) of 28% via other delivery methods in order to sustain an O2 saturation of 92% during the next 3 days.

About this study

Official title: Expanded Access of Prochymal® (Ex-vivo Cultured Adult Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells) Infusion for the Treatment of Patients Who Have Failed to Respond to Steroid Treatment for Acute GVHD

This protocol allows for the treatment of patients, male and female, between the ages of 18 years and 70 years. Patients must have failed to respond to steroid treatment for Grade C-D acute GVHD.

Read the detailed description

This is a treatment protocol to provide patients who have failed steroid treatment for acute GVHD expanded access of Prochymal. It is anticipated that a maximum of 10 patients per month for a total of 120 patients per year will be treated according to this protocol.

Patients will be treated with Prochymal twice per week at a dose of 2 x 106 human mesenchymal stem cell (hMSC)/kg (actual body weight) for each of 4 consecutive weeks. Infusions will be administered at least 3 days apart.
